Clemency -- Freedom (you do have a thing for setting things free), Clemmie, Cleo, Lemon (just kidding)
Leontine -- Leonie, Lea ("LAY-uh"), Cat
Morven -- Mor (no kidding, I love the name Mor for a girl, just Mor)
Tamar -- Tammy, Mara, Mari
Roisin -- Rosie, Ro (my SIL is nn'd Ro, from Rosemary)
Lachlan -- Lake
Morgan -- ?? You can't call him morgue for short. I'm stumped on this one.
Ardal -- Arlo, Ardie
Aloysius -- Al, Alo, Lou, Louie
